Transfer: Morgan Rogers Undergoes Chelsea Medicals Ahead of £117m Move
The move will set a new record for an English player, topping Manchester City’s £116 million agreement for Elliot Anderson, reports said.
- On Monday, Chelsea agreed to a £117million fee with Aston Villa for forward Morgan Rogers, who arrived at Stamford Bridge to complete his medical, setting a new British record for a footballer.
- Aston Villa agreed to the sale with Middlesbrough—known as Boro—due to receive 20% of the profit, following terms established during Rogers' initial move from Boro to Villa in January 2024.
- Following England's third-place World Cup finish, Rogers returned from the USA on Sunday, having helped the Three Lions defeat France on Saturday evening.
- Arsenal were unwilling to match the asking price, allowing Chelsea to move quickly; if the medical is successful, Rogers will sign a six-year contract with the Blues with an optional year extension.
- Middlesbrough expects about £4m to boost their summer transfer kitty after payments to Manchester City, continuing to balance its books while planning recruitment using strategies similar to previous loans from Australian bank Macquirie.
